Gaming and Social Media for Parents

Parenting is hard enough without having to wade through an ever changing technological landscape. This will provide you with the tools and the confidence to take on gaming, social media, and smartphones alongside your child instead of always being in conflict.
Join us online for this free workshop on June 2nd, 2025 at 7:00PM on Zoom and let’s learn together!
The seminar will offer the latest information about how kids are affected by current games and social media. Using the most up-to-date scientific research, host Ryan Mymko will share how to best guide your child through adolescence while arming them with tools to protect themselves from some of the most harmful aspects of gaming and social media.
